Philco 60 - Problem with Short Wave/Police Band
#13

Ron's site gives the resistances of the various windings. On my radio, here's what I measured:

With the ground lug as lug #1 and going clockwise:
Lug 2: AVC (bottom of secondary) to bakelite block cap 7 and R21
Lugs 3-4: to bandswitch (shorted out on shortwave) - Center of secondary 4.9 ohms (5.5 on schematic)
Lug 5 and white or brown wire from coil (not on a lug): to bandswitch (shorted out on shortwave) - Primary 11.3 ohms (11 ohms on schematic)
Lug 6: To tuning cap (and 6A7 grid cap above). Top of secondary.

Lugs 2-6: 6.6 ohms on BC, 2 ohms on SW
Lugs 1-5: 0.9 ohms (.7 ohms on schematic) SW primary (mine was open - rewound).
